I don't know if this belongs here,

if it doesn't please don't lock it MOD!

When they say 5'' blast or 7" blast, do they diameter or radius?

Or perimeter

Thanks for reading through

And hope you reply ASAP]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284487/1414577.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284487/1414577.page GMT Template sizes YMDC.

a 7" blast?! lead me to it.

a 5" blast is the large blast template (it has a circumfrence of 5") and the 3" is the small blast template (it has a circumfrence of 3")
then the flamer template has a LENGTH of 7" (from the thin point at the end to the large circular end.)

hope that helps.

Wrong. Radii is from center to edge. 5" blast is the same as a CD/DVD which has a 5" diameter.
Not so sure on flamer i thought it was 8" total but I may be wrong myself on that one.

Radius is measured from the center of an object to the perimeter, or sometimes, in the case of non-circular.... err... circles, such as ellipses, it is from the center to the farthest perimeter edge, and sometimes it is the average from the center to the furthest and the closest edge. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284487/1415388.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284487/1415388.page GMT Template sizes lol.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284487/1415399.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284487/1415399.page GMT Template sizes http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284487/1415446.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284487/1415446.page GMT Template sizes

Diameter?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284487/1415751.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284487/1415751.page GMT Re:Template sizes
3"/5" is the diameter, that is the furthest possible distance from one edge to the other.

A better way of thinking of it is to 1/2 this number, to give the radius (so 1.5"/2.5") and then set your tape measure to this, and draw the imaginary circle around the center of the target model.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284487/1415753.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284487/1415753.page GMT Template sizes

I believe a couple of the Forgeworld models have 7" templates. The Bombard and Collossus spring to mind. but i might be wrong.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284487/1416212.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284487/1416212.page GMT Template sizes

There are both 7" and 10" blast weapons in apocalypse.

The size of the BLAST MARKERS is always in diameter, which is the distance measured from one edge, through the centre, to the opposite edge. Radius is the distance from the centre to the furthest edge and is half the diameter.

The perimeter or curcumference is the distance round the edge, which for circles is defined as Pi*diameter.

Come on guys this is elementary geometry.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284487/1416558.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284487/1416558.page GMT Template sizes

So many? 1?

Well sure the guy who typo'd but I'm pretty sure we all know he didn't mean from center to the middle lol ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284487/1416733.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/284487/1416733.page GMT
